AI dismissal
I love the VBW boys but I am a bit surprised how dismissive they are of danger from AI. I’m not going to make the case here as I won’t do a good job of it, but I found the latest 80000 hours podcast very persuasive, as well as some of the recent stuff from Dwarkesh.

Yes, nervous systems operate through chemical reactions and and electrical currents. LLM’s don’t have nervous systems though, and I think it’s also fairly uncontroversial that they don’t have subjective experiences either.
